"GET HER!" The Alpha roared.

I feel the rush of wind fly towards me as I fall to the ground. I land hard on my hands and knees, rolling my ankle, a jolt of pain shoots through my entire body.

"Shit!" I hissed, I usually could have made that jump without hurting myself, but now it was getting hard even to see straight.

Walk it off! Rica growls at me, and I roll my eyes.

I know, I know! I agreed, getting to my feet. Limping, I make my way to the garage door. There is no way I can run through the forest now.

"Someone call the Nightfall Pack!" The Alpha ordered. I look up to see him staring down at me, with a sneer. I pick up my pace when he jumps down landing softly on the grass. Out of the corner of my eyes, I see a dark brown wolf run towards me. I dive for the ground barely missing the snap of his jaw when he tries to tackle me. He slams into the house and slides to the floor, effectively knocking himself out. I jerk to a halt; I'm surrounded. I turn, keeping my back to the house. Thirteen wolves stood before me, all in their human forms.

What are our options, Rica? I ask urgently

If we shift now it could kill us...and if we use the souls, they could destroy you...Rica trailed off.

Got it, fighting in my human form it is. I tell her faking confidence. My face goes blank as I crouch down, getting low in my fighting stance, my fists by my face and knees bent as if I am ready to spring up any moment...They form a small circle around me, leaving no room for an escape. A large man steps inside the ring, while the others quickly closed rank. I glare at him, and he gives me a condescending smile. He was a tall man with copper beady eyes. He had long, greasy black hair that reached his chin. By his scent I could tell he was one of the wolves who attacked me in the woods, he was the one who called for backup. He took a step towards me, and I growl loudly, the man laughs.

"Easy little wolf," he says in a calm dark voice, "We have orders to bring you back alive...but should we find you uncooperative, we have no problem training a pup, such as yourself, some respect." He finishes smirking at that thought. I raise an eyebrow

This bitch! Rica gasped, insulted

I know! I agree

NOW can we kill him? She huffed

I'm seriously considering it... The guy pulled out a pair of handcuffs, and I felt my whole body freeze. There is absolutely no way in HELL I was going back into a cell. My heart is pounding so hard I can feel it in my fingertips. I try to remember how to fight, how to throw a punch. My gut writhes as he comes towards me, arm muscles standing at attention. He smiles at me and for a brief second, and I wonder if throwing up on him will be distraction enough to make a getaway.

I doubt it Rica said, I jerk my eyes to the other men waiting for my next move. Quickly I get into my fighting stance. The asshole barrels over laughing hard.

He turns a little towards the other man.

"There should be a rule, anyone under 5'5 cannot try to fight someone superior to them," He jokes turning back to me, " I mean what can you do? Headbutt my nipples?" The men around him begin to chuckle at his pathetic joke.

"You know I might go easy on you if you beg." I stay silent and narrow my eyes. The thought of me begging this jerk for mercy makes me taste bile. He takes a couple of steps closer, and I throw a hard kick to his side jumping away before he could make a grab at me. He grunts and steps back, his eyes narrow and he takes a fighting stance, serious now. Shit.

"Alright, little bitch...you want to play?" He asks, and I finally let my smile grace my face. He takes a step back, and I know my eyes are blood red.

Yes Rica hissed sadistically You should be scared, you bastardis [bastard]

"You know I love it when someone insults me...because now it means that I don't have to play nice anymore," I tell them while cracking my knuckles. I shove hard off the ground and land in front of him, using the element of surprise to drive my knee into his hard stomach, he gives a loud gasp and bends over.

"Hi, I'm 5'1...so say goodbye to your kneecaps, asshole," I whisper in his ears before forcing my legs on his knees bending it the wrong way. The loud, satisfying crack of his bones followed by his high pitched screams fill the sky. I push the man away from me, and he lands on the ground clutching his legs.

"Who's next?" I ask the men and they all charge at me, biting and clawing at me. I hold in my cries when I feel their nails dig into me, tearing away my flesh. I swing my fist, wildly landing blows for blows. Some punch my nose, and my eyes begin to water, jerking my head back. I fall to the ground, rolling away. I stare up at the five men still standing. I wipe the blood from my face. From the corner of my eyes, I see a boot comes flying towards me, and I scramble out of the way. I shoot towards the man, punching his jaw with all my strength, knocking him out.

Four more Rica confirmed. I stagger to my feet.

Rica...I need help. I finally mutter in my head.

Finally! I hear her triumphantly say, give me one drop of their blood...That's all I need. She orders and I look down at the man I just knocked out. His arm was gushing blood from the bite I took out of him...funny I don't remember doing that. I bend down and dip my finger in his arm, feeling the warm gushing liquid under my hands. I slowly bring it to my mouth and taste it. I hold in my moan...the taste of his blood was undeniably the best thing I have ever eaten. As I sit there, I feel it. A weird burning sensation coursing through my veins, except this time, it was stronger. I felt the bond of their pack under my powers. All the men came towards me, and for a minute I could hear their plans. I dodge their attack and grab at the knife that they were planning to use on me. I plunge it through the wolf's stomach; his cries echo through the darkening sky. Three more came at me, their fists flying, this time I could see them clearly as if they were going at a fraction of the speed they were before. I smile and take the knife and slice another wolf's legs, blood gushing out.

MORE Rica roared in my ears. I look at the remaining men, each staring at me, horror filling their expressions. A loud CRACK sounded above the men screaming in pain, and suddenly a burning pain shoots through my leg causing me to fall hard on my face. I scream in rage, and another CRACK sounds. More pain explodes in my left arm making me drop the knife. I look up to see the Alpha staring at me with a bored expression, aiming a gun at me. He shoots again, and this time it goes straight through my shoulder. I let out a pained grunt.

"The rumors don't give you justice." He said chuckling, he took a step towards me and I give a vicious growl. He points the gun and shoots me in the other leg; I bite my cry back. My whole body was screaming in agony, but I hold it in. Dark spots begin to blur my vision.

We've been through worse; I remind myself, and I feel Ulrica fight to take control. I feel him kneel in front of me, I open my eyes, and he is aiming the gun to my stomach.

"You truly are a mon-"He begins

"Yes, yes, I'm a bitch...I'm a horrible monster," I pause giving him an evil smile feeling the blood come out of my mouth, "Can you please come up with some new material...It's getting a little boring." The Alpha shoots again, and I gasp loudly holding my bleeding stomach. I fall to the ground, gasping for breath.

"Take her to the-" Before he could finish the sentence I grab at the knife and jab it through his neck. He stares down at me in shock, blood spurting out of his mouth. I pull the knife out, and hot, wet blood pours out like water. I hear a distant scream in the background, but Rica has already taken over my body. I feel her put on a huge smile in our face, to the point where it hurts. Through her eyes I see the pitch black soul attempt to leave the body, trying to escape into the air. She grabs at it and holds the wiggling soul in her fist.

"You belong to me now." Rica hummed in her low gruff voice; it sent shivers down my spine. The soul stops wiggling around, and she brings it to our mouth and opens wide, swallowing it. In a matter of seconds, I feel the bullets inside my body exit and touch the wounds slowly heal. She pushes me up front, and I stare at the bodies around me.

"No" I whisper, tears coming to my eyes as I see the destruction I caused. I look up to see Charis stare at me in horror...that hurt the most. I look at my hands, covered in blood and look back at the other wolves staring at their dead Alpha by my feet. I stumble back when I see his eyes...they were the same shade as Xander's. I shake my head looking anywhere but at the blood. It hurt so much...because a part of me enjoyed the blood, the pain I caused.

I turn around and run into the forest, hot tears burning my face as they fall.

I am a monster.
